Naomi Is A Television Punk

Naomi Punk is the other band getting me through this miserable night (that and some baked chicken, tomato, olives, lemon, garlic and thyme on rice - because I like to cook and the kitchen is super warm - and gallons of Lemsip). They brought out 2nd album Television Man through Captured Tracks last year, and it is the type of dirty garage punk with a glossed, glazed edge that I absolutely love. There is a grunge growl here that reminds me of a band like True Widow - albeit with the more angular brood that those Copenhagen kids brandish with such wanton disdain. If you missed this record last year - and I have to admit that aside from hearing 'Firehose Face' over a venue PA in December, I did - then you need to hunt this down. It's bloody great.

About

It was early on a Sunday morning at ATP - A Nightmare Before Christmas 2009. After downing a fair few, at 4am we decided to cook a curry. It was during the consumption of this drunkenly delicious breakfast treat that we decided to actually do something about the music we talk about all the time.

So we started a blog – and Sonic Masala was born. Now into its fourth year, the blog has spread out to call both Australia and the UK its home (and the rest of the world), and has expanded to include gigs, festivals and a record label under its black umbrella. Come on, eat the noize.

If an mp3 is up here, it's because we have been talking about it, and think the whole world needs to know more. It's there to give you a little taste. Then, if you like, check out the band live and spend all your hard earned cash on their records. If we've posted up an mp3 of your stuff and you're not too keen on the idea, let us know and we'll happily take it down pronto.
